Eat ‘Em and Weep
This dish is fantastic! Definitely tastes like something you would get at a restaurant. The best part…it’s quick and easy. Certainly company worthy.

Ingredients:
3 tsp. olive oil
1/4 to 1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. ground cumin
1 1/2 tsp. ground chipotle chile powder (1 dried chipotle, […]
This sauce recipe is awesome! It tastes like something you would get in a restaurant. The original recipe calls for cooking the sauce for 4 minutes, but I like the flavors when the sauce is simmered for a longer period of time…it’s richer and bolder. But if time is short, you can certainly cook the […]
Here’s a great recipe for leftover chicken or turkey or use a rotisserie chicken. The leftovers are great too!

Here’s another really tasty recipe for quick Reuben sandwiches. To me what makes this sandwich is the homemade thousand islandish dressing. It’s easy, so don’t skip that step.
Thousand Island Dressing Ingredients:
1 c. mayo
1 c. ketchup
1/2 c. sweet pickle relish (I only had hot dog relish which is a mix of mustard and relish)
1 TBSP […]
The country club in the town where I grew up served an awesome brunch. Every time I went there I would get corned beef hash. The corned beef hash was not that minced mush looking stuff you get at some restaurants or out of a can. They used big roasted potatoes, fresh corned beef, and […]
This is a tasty, hearty, and super easy version of the slow cooked classic: chicken and dumplings. Be sure to use low sodium broth, and if you don’t I would suggest using half broth half water, otherwise it will be too salty (trust me–there is plenty of salt in the rotisserie chicken, cream of chicken […]
This dressing is so good. It’s good on salads and fish tacos. We loved this dressing on fish tacos so much that we had fish tacos 2 times in one week.

1-2 jalapenos, minced
1 tsp. garlic, minced
1 tsp. onion, minced

I love Pad Thai, and the nice thing about this dish is that it is quick and easy to make. It’s certainly a bit more adventurous than my kiddos are willing to try, so I just set aside some of the chicken for them, and they were happy with that. You could also skip the […]
I picked up the America’s Test Kitchen 30-Minute Suppers magazine at the store, because I am always looking for quick and tasty meals to prepare. There were a number of recipes that caught my eye, and this tofu dish did not disappoint. We will certainly make this dish again.
Recipe adapted from the Winter 2010 30-Minute […]
Jello salads and molded jello salads were all the rage in the 70’s and they still are for my family in the Pacific Northwest. Most jello salads I don’t particularly care for, but I eat enough to be polite. There is one exception. My Great Aunt Arlene makes this wonderful raw cranberry jello salad every […]
